Signed and share. I am totally with you, AniMae. Just ahead of my city Trois-Rivières, it was a nuclear central that was closed there are 2-3 years ago. It was working during 40 years!!! We still have nuclear waste for long time.

Thank You for the Petition AniMae, are you familiar with the multi billion dollar waste dump here in the U.S. that is sitting idle and unused. #BOONDOGGLE http://www.propublica.org/article/while-nuclear-waste-piles-up-in-u.s.-billions-in-fund-to-handle-it-sits-unu

It would be a huge mistake for South Australia if they were to choose to host a global nuclear waste dump. This definitely should not happen. Signed & shared. Thanks AniMae.

Well done AniMae! It was quite shocking indeed to hear about these massive shipments of waste to Australia. I wish we could succeed to persuade the French government to stop its ridiculous development of hyper mega nuclear power plants. They can't even dismantle the older ones because they can't afford the cost. So they keep running them well beyond the date at which they were supposed to be put out of commission for lack of a solution. I don't know where this waste came from, but regardless, I think those who create it are the guilty party.
As an individual I have demonstrated and fought against this, but it is not enough to stop it. It is really important that we fight against nuclear power at a global level.

This is so wrong. I am so against nuclear power. I live quite near a nuclear power plant and it is frightening. I certainly hope this shipping of waste to the country of Australia does not happen. I am sorry to hear about this action.
Thank you AniMae for speaking up for your country. We are here to help each other. Please post any other such petitions for the members here to sign.

I signed both Petitions. These nuclear waste dump sites shouldn't be in anyone's backyard. We need to stop it everywhere. We have other means to provide energy and these sources must be set and and used asap. We have no rights to destroy the lands and expose untold generations to this radiation.

Our generation will be cursed into the future for having allowed this to take place. That generations of people will be expected to deal with this waste for our energy source is thoughtless at the very least and against all humanity and decency.

How dare we give the next 250,000 years this disaster in the making to deal with. We can't even guarantee the area will look the same as it does today. Continents shift, sea level rises, documents and warning signs get lost as to where things are.

Noted, signed and shared...dangerous stuff that no one wants so don't dump it on Australia or anywhere else. This toxic by product of the nuclear industry will be left for future generations to deal with who knows what it can cause...use other sources of energy keep the world clean and safe from toxic waste......

This subject is something that always causes much more that discomfort, than causes fear because it is really something criminal imagine using areas in South Australia as a nuclear waste dump. It is not admissible that this idea is being seriously entertained in a country with the development of Australia. Signed the petition and I will share it with everyone I can. Thanks aniMae, it is a problem that goes beyond the borders of Australia.

Why on earth would Australia be willing to store (for eternity) nuclear waste when it is not their nuclear waste in the first place? How much of a bribe was taken by the government for this insane idea? Countries that generate nuclear waste must dispose of it on their own land, in their own country.

Preplanning, practicality and health concerns do not go hand in hand with greed...s/sh ty friend. We're dealing with old plants as well which are failing and harming the planet and our health.

Reshared! I can't believe it hasn't gotten more signatures! It's ghastly to think that another country wants to dump THEIR WASTE in another country!!! Dispose of it in your own country or don't use it! PERIOD!!!

Noted and "signed" with comment: "It is time to develop truly clean, sustainable and ecologically sound sources of energy, such as solar panels and photovoltaic cells that are installed on buildings. Nuclear energy is not the solution both due to the issue of nuclear waste and because reserves of uranium and other fissile materials are limited and often located on land that belongs to indigenous peoples. This civilization needs to become a circular economy and that means no dumps of any kind. I recycle over 99% (by mass) of my waste and have done so since 1990."

This is the first time in a long time that I have interracted with my friends on Care2. Unfortunately, I always end up getting "bogged" in the newsfeeds on Facebook, and Croatian television has added so much new content since 2012 that I often watch 2 channels simultaneously. I rarely get much else done.

Yes well said, we need to keep up the pressure, this fight is a big and nasty one and is going to keep going on for a long long time. I'm trying to do my bit, never rest easy on this, we need to be constantly telling people of the evils of the nuclear industry, it is so toxic for so long and their propaganda machine somehow convinces people they know what they are doing but that is the scariest thing, they don't and they're playing with tat stuff! They don't have our permission, let's keep letting them know this. Thank you to everyone who cares.

If you asked the politicians to park it under Parliament House there would be a different tune being sung. So why are they so eager to dump it out in the wilderness of South Australia? Do they think it will be less environmentally damaging? Are they, the politicians all idiot drongos? Thank you for sharing this petition it has been signed, noted and shared.

For some reason, Care2 established a 2nd acc't under my other email address. I'm guessing that your well-written petition was (thankfully!) sent to me because it made it to the front page (?) With so many members noting/signing/sharing it (bless Darren's heart), I agree with Vivian...and I wish I could help increase its circulation. :-((

I signed your petition again, and also signed Mark Parnell's petition this time....I just don't understand why both petitions haven't gathered more signatures. I take that back: I think it's easier for us humans to identify with another animal suffering versus, say, a forest that's about to be clear-cut -- although destroying the planet will clearly condemn all life forms. You know what I mean? Sometimes, the disastrous effects of pollution and contamination aren't readily apparent; sometimes, it takes many years to connect the dots and recognize the damage. But when we see a picture of a dog being boiled alive in Yulin, or read what happened to Cecil, Harambe and on and on, anyone with a heart can empathize with the terror, torment and/or pain that individual must have felt.

Anyway, I admire your writing skills, and the extra effort you exerted... But then again, you always do go that extra mile. 🌞
Thank you! xxxxx
